I have wondered for years why Iowa hasn't fired Ferentz.
Then you know nothing about the culture of Iowa football.
People in Des Moines are thrilled at the prospect of winning 7 or 8 games on a regular basis. The resources available to that university pail in comparison to any school in the SEC.
Hayden Fry, the school's greatest coaching figure, only won three conference titles over a span of 20 seasons. His winning percentage was only 61.3% and he was 6-7 in bowl games.
Meanwhile, Ferentz has won two conference titles and is 6-6 in bowl games. His winning percentage may only be 59.9%, but it comes during a period of time in which the B10 is much more talented overall.
Please, don't ever use Iowa as a benchmark or standard for LSU athletics.

You don't have a clue, man. Iowa isn't located in Des Moines. It is in Iowa City.
Ferentz wasn't canned because of his buyout. I believe it is around $18 million.
